Part 2:
What I really want is to be able to take the SD card out of the Mavic Pro and put it into the tablet (via a OTG USB adapter) and play the videos, which are recorded in 4k, various fps (24/30), horizonal width (4096/3840, and container modes (.mp4/.mov) (I've tried them all, even 2.7k 24fps). The Tab 4 wont play a 4k video in any app. The Tab A, using SW decoder will sorta play the 4k videos (the HW decoder wont).
The problem is that they play jerky. Very unwatchable. I've tried several Android video player apps.
MX Player (with ARMv7 NEON codec installed) - plays a few frames (~1/2 sec) then pauses for ~1/2 sec
VLC puts up the first frame only as the video "plays"
Xplayer, aka Android Video Player - Same result as MX Player… jerky
Fyi, on my PC (Haswell I7 with integrated graphics, 2015 vintage with a 4k monitor) the files play with very view dropped frames in Win10's Movies and TV app, and with a few more dropped frames in VLC and Win10's Windows Media Player. Stating the obvious, yes the PC has more horsepower than the Tab A.
Most of this thread seems to be talking about successfully running DJI GO for control. I don't have any problems with control/flight usage with either tablets, but
I want to be able to reasonably watch the videos on the same device in the field.
Does anyone have a tablet recommendation what will play these 4k videos smoothly, and also be a big, bright flight display?
Thank you!
